Russia has come up with self-cleaning clothing for cosmonauts

The Russian company COPPLIFE has come up with self-cleaning clothing for astronauts. The authors of the development have already

offered their services to Roscosmos.

TASS writes that the proposal was discussed duringforum "Army 2020". The designed clothes will not need to be washed. It contains copper nanoparticles that will kill all bacteria. These clothes can be used for work or training.

The authors of the project claim that the astronauts afterIf you wear clothes, you just need to pack them, and they will be completely cleaned within 24 hours. One set of such things will last for four months. After this period, the nanoparticles cease to act.

Four months may seem like a short time toany person who lives on Earth. But astronauts in orbit are forced to use disposable clothing, which is enough for three to four days. The fact is that it is impossible to wash things on the International Space Station (ISS).
